exhibition · 2026-05-04

Martin Soto Climent (Mexico City, 1977) presents a solo exhibition at T293 gallery in Rome, exploring human interaction with the surrounding world through repurposed everyday objects. The artist stretches, weaves, and tears items like bras and stockings on wooden supports, revealing how simple objects can acquire multiple meanings. Climent argues that art should not be burdened with intrinsic meanings that interfere with perception; viewers are invited merely to perceive and observe. The exhibition also includes preparatory sketches and fabric scraps, offering insight into the installation's genesis. The show was reviewed by Valentina Gasperini for Artribune.
